Seed Saving Classroom Kit
Developed by Tyler Levine and STEM Pre-Academy the Seed Saving Classroom kit includes the materials to collect, clean, dry, and store your seeds. While this kit and the associated activities are geared towards tomatoes, there is much flexibility in what you can do!
The Seed Saving Classroom Kit can help you preserve the viability and longevity of your seeds by ensuring minimal moisture content within the seed so that they don’t prematurely germinate and/or rot and grow mold when stored.
And don’t miss the Seed Saving Activity that was developed to go along with this kit.
